Domestic Hints.

If you are troubled with weak
eyes never sift ashes while facing
the wind, get your wife to do it. or
wait till the wind shifts to another
quarter. A cheap boy may be
hired for so cents a day to pull
weeds, but it costs 81 extra to pay
a man to watch the boy. He is a
wise man who instead of driving
his neighbor's hens out of the door
yard with a fusIlade of old boots,
stones and profanity, fixes up
snug place for them to lay In. If
you are living beyond your means
it is best to ignore the fact. Brood
ing over such trifles causes a man
to worry, and worry kills more peo-
pie than work.

Major Dennis Disgusted.

Old John Dennis late Of the

hear Belshazzar at the Big Taber-
nacle and is hugely Disguised. He
says that the title sacred cantata'
induced him to prepare his ears for
music of deep, devotional, swell
ing, grand and long drawn order.
whereas it was light and trlfling
airy and not of the deep devotional
spirit he had anticipated. Hence
the kick. When Dennis gets his
ears set for any special grade of
music it is hard to unlimber them
and change the set to something
else

the State loses two miles, and Ell

road, by the survey. Lander county
gains mile and three quarters aud
Humboldt loses about thac length
of track. This will reduce the
main track in this county to al

Desirable Grasses.

Last year some discussion was
had In the State papers relative to
filaree, the new fodder grass which
was sprineing up in the State. This
grass, or rather plant, is obtainins
a firm foothold in this State and
spreading rapidly.
Its seeds have little spiral fla
ments attached, and when blown
about by the wild catch readily
in the soil and grow quickly. No
known forage plant fattens stock as
rapidly as flaree. 1t grows in dry.
sandy places where water never
comes, and the rapidity with which
it spreads is something wonderful.
The dry, sandy hillside North of
Rafettoes on the road to Lake View
is now covered with filaree, where
only q few struggling plants were
seen last year. At this rate the
heretofore barren hills of Nevada
will soon be mautled with filaree,
which will save the cattlemen a
vast amount of money.
Another desirable and fast
spreading plant is rye grass. It
will grow 10 dry, sandy soil without
water, and the sagebrush is becom-
ing filled with it. The writer has
found clumps of this grass three
feet high growing where not drop
of water has reached it, on dry,
sandy soil.
Clear away the sagebrush and
supplant it with rye grass and FL
aree, and it will be worth millions
to the State. 1t is not probable
that many people will act on this
advice, but the sturdy and enter
prising plants are working their
own way into Nevada, and teach
the people what they ought to have
known years ago. These plants
have settled here to stay.

In the suit brought by the Pennsylvania
Company under the guise of stockholders OF
the ST. Louis, Vandalia g. Terre Haute against
the Terre Haute g. Indianapolis the bill. Of COM
plant asks:
First-That the lease of the Vandalia line to
the Terre Haute g. Indianapolis be- annulled
and the property restored to its owners.
Second-That the Terre Haute 81 Indanap-
oils to the Vandalia for its earnings dur
ing the time the lease was in force.
Third-That receiver be appointed to take
charge of the affairs of the Vandalia.
AS the application for a receiver is considered
the most important, it is upon this point in the
suit that the argument will be heard next
Thursday. 1t is claimed that the Terre Haute
and Indianapolis road is indebted to the Van
dalia over $500, 900. The Philadelphia Press
says it is believed the Pennsylvania interests
will be fully protected oy the litigation just be-
gun. IL il proves successful and the lease is an

the Cincinnati, Hamilton e. Dayton will
amount to practically nothing and the Baltimore

Ohio 81 Mississippi as q means of getting into

The Pennsylvania people claim the lease is
void because there was never any power either
In Indiana or Illinois to make such lease. AS
the alleged lessee is in its turn leased to another
company the Pennsylvania thought proper to
terfere. controlling interest in the Vandalia
road is held by the Pennsylvania.

The DOings orThree Thieves

Oxford Press.
The large general merchandise store of Messrs
Rouse d Hanna, Delta, York county, was en-
tered by three thieves Monday night OF last week
The robbers took SIG In cash, q quantity of
ready-made clothing and other articlea. The
plunderers went from Delta to Peach Bottom
York county side, and stealing one of Hugh
Burke's boats commenced to row across the river
towards the Lancaster county shore When out
some distance they came upon boat containing
Michael Burke and Lorenzo Sample, who were
pulling for home on the side the robbers had
left Mr.. Burke questioned the men about the
boat and their bundles, he supposing that the
former belonged to his father The replies to
his queries being unsatisfactory he started after
the disappearing boat. The thieves, however,
had too good start on MIR. Burke and his COM
panion as the former had reached the Lancaster
county shore and had disappeared before their
pursuers could give an alarm at Whttakers
hotel. On Wednesday three men dressed In
brand new clothes appeared amongst O gang Of
section hands working on the Peach Bottom
Railroad near Westbrook station and asked the
way to Quarryville. The strangers spoke brok-
en- English and each man had on his shoulder
phosphate sack full of store goods. These men
were undoubtedly the fellows who robbed the
Delta store. The following night horse and
wagon belonging to Newton Rutter, Centreville,
Lancaster county, were taken from the stable
and driven some distance, but were found next
day In woods 1t 10 supposed that this was
done by the same parties. The supposltlon is
that these robbers were tramps, as q number of
Migrants have been Fostering the people OF Delta
